I am thinks of getting back into the 1/5 scale hobby after being out of it for 8 years or so. So, I want to get the new Baja 5b Flux (I had the original gasser 5b SS). I see that HPI recommends two esc's rated for 200a (castle and hobbywing). I mainly use Spektrum and like their equipment. So, my question is this? Would a Spektrum 160a esc be a bad idea in this model? I know that the 1/5 scale models from Losi and Arrma all use Spektrum 160a esc's. Is HPI just going overkill? Or is there something about the Baja 5b that requires a 200a esc? The Arrma and Losi trucks both weight a couple pounds more. I know the final gear ratio is higher on the Baja. But that's the only thing I could find that might justify the higher current rating. If you all believe that 200a is needed, here is my next question. Could I get away with using ec5 connectors? I would likely never run 8s. Likely would just run two 3s in series. (2 3s batteries are less expensive than 1 6s, from what I found). Thanks for any help!
